Dear anon of like three weeks ago,

I always try to keep my promises. Here you go. HERE’S YOUR SAM/FIVE FANMIX. MERRY CHRISTMAS.

Love,  Me

Just kidding, but here it actually is, although for some reason it sounds weird out of the conversion and I just… ugh. And unfortuantely it still doesn’t get his lovely overprotective moments, or other things that probably don’t seem shippy to others but yes, yes, however much i’m displeased with it, whoever you were, here you go. <3

“So we lay in the dark, cause we’ve got nothing to say. Just the beating of hearts, like two drums in the grey. I don’t know what we’re doing, I don’t know what we’ve done.  But the fire is coming, So I think we should run.”

say what you will about tiktok but i’ve been laughing at these for ten minutes

I feel like Sam could do a handstand if he wanted. He can only hold it for four seconds before someone smacks his legs and he falls over but that's beside the point.

I started using Head and Shoulders ten years ago for itchy scalp and dandruff, and then for ten years I have not had itchy scalp and dandruff, so I thought “why do I still buy shampoo to combat itchy scalp and dandruff when I do not have itchy scalp and dandruff,” so I stopped buying the shampoo for itchy scalp and dandruff and can you guess I have now? Can you predict what currently afflicts me? It’s alright if you can’t because apparently I fuckin couldn’t either

[drowsystarlight]

how do you do art?

funny answer: i lock in . i go crazy and let my hand do the work

serious answer: i let myself marinate in an idea and i do my best to execute it :DDDD there are a lot of art resources out there that can help you get started if you'd like! I wont recommend myself because teaching art isnt rly my strongest suit, but its never impossible to start. it just so happened that i started years ago so it feels like instinct to me now :3

,,,,,if you meant this in a technical manner UH i use clip studio paint and procreat for digital art :DDD

Hello hello more asks for Five cause I love them

If Five could wish for one thing to come true, what would it be and why? How would this change their life?

Does Five have a moral code or a set of rules they have for themselves? If so, what made them adopt these morals or ideals?

When a stranger meets your Five, what’s the first thing they notice about them?

What are some reasons someone would like or get along with your FIve? Are these positive traits something your Five is aware of?

Pick some Abel characters, and if they died, what would Five's first guy reaction be?

What's Five like at their best?

What's Five like at their worst?

HI HI!!!! sorry for taking a while to answer >:3 BUT IM HERE W MORE ANSWERS!!

They wish the apocalypse never happened. This is probably common to people in the ZR universe but Five genuinely wishes it never happened. That, or that they werent around to live in it. (Yeah,,,,,,, Yeowch!!) A lot of people seem to forget that Five is human too and all they really want is to do normal, human things. If the apocalypse never happened, Five would be an animator :DD

They used to! It's changed since the apovcalypse. Now it's just "if this will help me and the people I care about, I'll do it". Very simple! (also applies to ,,,, crimes)

My Five has really big, expressive eyes. Initially I designed them this way bc they're selectively mute, and their outfits usually cover their mouth. My Five stares at people like this

Its both petty and understandable. If someone has the same interests as them, they'd get along a bit easier. If not, then it all depends on whethere they think they can trust you or not. My Five usually doesn't like when people cross personal boundaries. They're aware of this!! They'd share it when they warm up to you or people, but that's kinda the challenging part,,,, They don't talk prompted or unprompted LOL

Oh boy,,,,,

1. Sam - they'd loop around all the stages of grief for an entire year or two. While they do that, you can expect they'll want to destroy or eradicate whoever or whatever killed him. Womp womp!! 2. Janine - They'll never talk about it but it'll haunt them forever. Janine is like a mentor to my Five 3. Jody - They'll try to finish whatever unfinished knitting project she had, then wear or use that forever. They'd be very upset but they don't really talk about those feelings,,, There are others but they're in future seasons so >:3 no spoilers!!

There's a unique shine in their eyes when they're happy. If you're lucky (or if you're Sam, usually), you'd see them smile and laugh. At their best, Five is able to do normal hobbies by learning from other Abel residents. They draw a lot, too. Better, even.

At their worst, Five is like a ghost. Nobody really sees them at these times because they're usually hiding away somewhere not a lot of people would know. They're spiteful and untrustworthy, HIGHLY prone to violence and irrational decisions or reactions. They'll yell if they reach their limit. When they have nothing else they could focus on in this state, their mental health kinda sinks and wanders into dark, dark places.

RRAAAHHHH thank you for sending me these asks!!!! It's so fun to think of my Five again :'DDD being busy and basically dabbling in other fandoms has let them sleep from my brain for a hot minute!!

One thing really superb throughout Arcane is that Jayce & Viktor start the series with a similar amount of black/grey/white on their outfits but as the season goes on Jayce becomes more and more covered in white while Viktor adds black pieces to himself (including his limbs, which he hides) which makes for a clean, subtle, and really effective way of showing contrast between their characters – even Viktor’s vest is eventually grayer in tone while Jayce’s shirt gains white sleeves and he wears white kneepads.

Depending on the scene, different parts of their outfits are emphasized, to really dig in the framing. They’re equals with complimentary traits; started at the same uniform, but with different tie colors; Viktor eventually takes on Jayce’s tie, his crutch is emblazoned with the colors of house Talis (red, gold, Jayce is shown working on a similar design at the forge) The white of Viktor’s tie transfers to the brightness of Jayce’s coat, now fitting for the Man of Progress, while Viktor recedes further into the shadows.

And something else that’s really sweet is that when they have their heart-to-heart during act 3…

The sun shines directly over them, making them look like a matched set once again.

jayce i love you and your pretty eyes

[drowsystarlight]

get u an OT3 that looks like

[drowsystarlight]

"i thought i was fully prepared for the threshold on store // stay your pretty eyes on course // i guess i've never really faced my fears before // so stay with me because // my body's on the line now // pull the blanket tight now // i can feel the light shine on my face"

(jayce, scared, looking in viktor eyes and seeing how scared he is as well and just... coming to him so gently, holding the back of his neck to bring him close to him, forehead to forehead, "i'm here...". and viktor returning the sentiment by gently stroking his arm. it's okay because they are together.)

ARCANE: LEAGUE OF LEGENDS (2021-2024)

[drowsystarlight]

okay, but y'all are forgetting though that jayce ain't so much of this ethically moral "angel"/hero for humanity. this man literally could have gone back to earth and helped people recover after the largest existential threat they've ever faced. he literally is not just one of the most brilliant scientists in the land, but also has notes from viktor, the other brilliant scientist, that can help these folks out. but he didn't give a fuck about none of that lmao. only thing that mattered to him was being with his partner, who despite almost making the whole glorious evolution happen, jayce still wanted, and unconditionally loved, just him.

[drowsystarlight]

Ok this might be a stretch but after act 2 I was so curious to see why Jayce had looked upon Viktor like that

It wasn't fear, not exactly, upon seeing Viktor in a divine sort of position I could only describe Jayce's gaze as awed.

Of course, before the third act came out, the popular theory of "Jayce is stuck in a time loop and has killed Viktor many times before" explained a lot about his behavior but not about this look. Why would he look so shaken if this isn't his first time seeing him?

Now that the show is over I do believe we might have an answer and of course the answer is given to us in this scene.

When Cait mentions Viktor, forcing Jayce to confront that more than Ambessa, the greatest threat to their lives and Piltover is Viktor himself, Jayce thinks back to that first meeting after the time skip.

Of course we know at this point that there was no time loop. This is indeed the first time Jayce sees Viktor as the herald, and Viktor's reaction to seeing Jayce for the first time after months has been distorted in Jayce's own memories.

In his mind Viktor smiles at him. Although he is about to kill him, from Jayce's perspective, Viktor's first look at him after months of being separated is one of pure affection.

During his time in the arcane he was forced to undergo contidions that directly reflect Viktor's own upbringing, but let's not forget he was also haunted by such visions:

Making Mel's image dissappear only to be replaced by Viktor's is extremely symbolic, this is not Jayce obsessing over Viktor and his actions, instead we are directly told that not only is Jayce's relationship with Viktor of the same sort as his relationship with Mel, Viktor is quite literally replacing his former lover.

We could talk about the constant parallels between Mel and Viktor for days, but I believe my last point is backed up even further by propably the most evident mirror shot of the two of them:

appearing again during Viktor's conversation with Jayce:

This is very clearly a POV shot of Viktor from Jayce's own eyes, although it is Viktor talking, the images we see are from Jayce remembering their first meeting which, of course, was fated to happen.

With this established and going back to my main point, I believe upon seeing Viktor for the first time in months, who is gazing down at him with a smile on his face, and after being forced to confront his feelings for Viktor, Jayce looks up at him with love.

This is his own realization that they are in fact meant to find one another in every timeline.
